To the AVfM poster crew at Arizona State University:
Thank you. I recently read a statepress.com article describing the actions of campus feminists who appear totally unaware of their own stupidity and bigotry. That might seem a harsh characterization of their actions, but regardless of local law or university regulation about tearing down public speech based on disagreement, there is no polite way to discuss censorship except by honestly calling it totalitarian, cowardly and craven. If Nicole Lemme, Abigail Daniels and Danielle Farley ever grow up and become adults, they will likely be horribly embarrassed by the public record of what seems a total lack of moral compass in each of them.
I hope you, who have been putting up the posters so feared they must be censored, will not be disheartened by the censorship of these cowardly vandals. I hope you will continue. I don’t know that my opinion counts for much on your campus, but I particularly like the poster designed by my colleague and friend Limey Westlake which reads “you don’t fear and hate [these people] do you?” and which concludes “men’s rights are human rights.” Hint Hint.
Each poster you put up which is torn down by a feminist – and which a feminist admits to tearing down – is your victory. They cannot answer, they cannot argue, they cannot field any rebuttal, so they must silence. And they do so with no apparent recognition of their own egregious wrongdoing.
They do not recognize censorship as wrongdoing. But we do, as does anyone in the wider world with a real interest in human rights. They are condemning themselves by their own shameful tactics.
Even in their interview comments as reported by Dulce Paloma, these bright lights of campus feminism be-clown themselves. According to the statepress.com writer, Nicole Lemme claimed:
“They think women hate men and feminism is about enslaving them,” she said. “That is just not true.”
Of course, this explains perfectly why silencing the speech of disagreeing men is so important. Do I need to use sarcasm tag here?
Abigail Daniels also commented, saying:
“We want people to know we don’t hate men,” she said. “We just want to have the equal rights as them. We don’t want more rights.” She is not reported to have said “our feminist goal of equal rights is why we must silence them.”
The atomic weapons-grade stupidity and hypocrisy would not be believable if I had not seen near identical behavior and justification in Vancouver, responding to my own posters.
A few [hopefully unnecessary] cautions.
As frustrating as this can be to deal with, I must also mention what is likely obvious to you already. I apologize in advance if this is redundant. Please do not fall into the trap of tearing the feminist’s posters down or censoring them. You are winning by maintaining your own civilized conduct. Please give your harassers no ammunition to use against you. The willingness to silence and suppress your free speech should alert you that these gender ideologues are not limited by any moral or ethical consideration.
Watch your backs gentlemen, and if you have the financial means I STRONGLY recommend acquiring and wearing a wearable camera – such as the GoPro model I use to cover my own ass.
But keep putting your posters up gentlemen, and take pictures. In fact, if you send photos of your posters on campus to Paul or myself – we’ll mail you AVFM stickers backed with industrial strength “fuck you glue,” which read AVfM: men’s rights are human rights.
As a side note, Kristina who co-hosts AVFM Radio with me asked if Nicole Lemme, Abigail Daniels and Danielle Farley, would be added to register-her.com. Unfortunately, the site has no category for morons.
Gentlemen, keep fucking their shit up, and thanks.
